Internet-Regulating FEC Commissioner to Resign

Democratic commissioner has been no-show from public meetings since early December

A Democratic Federal Election Commission official who pushed to regulate the internet and has been absent from public meetings for months is resigning, according to an announcement.

Ann Ravel, who wanted to regulate political speech on the internet from websites such as the Drudge Report, announced Sunday that she is stepping down from her post.

“It’s been an honor to serve the FEC. I’m committed to transparency – here’s my resignation letter to Donald Trump,” Ravel tweeted on Sunday morning.
Ravel attached her resignation letter to President Donald Trump, which focused on asking Trump to prioritize campaign finance reform.
